    - Blue screen of death Hello. I have WinME and recently when I simply close the IE I get the blue screen of death and saying: "error: OE-0177:BFF8E64B". Since I can not return to windows I simply shotdown and restart. Scan disking gives the following: "This drive's boot area contains importatn information that is damaged or invalid. This can casue windows to reprot the drive's free space incrorrectly or slowly. Scan disk repairs the boot area by recording the correct values in this area." When I say repair I get the following : " A program (or windows itself) saved information to your drive after the previous error was detected. scandisk must restart so it can include this new information in the scan for errors. This error, and any other errors that were previously reported, but not corrected may be reported again." So. I get back to the windows and wait for the next time around this happens. I seem to be free of scumware, spam or what have you. At least so report the Ad-aware, Spybot, spywareblaster, CWshredder, etc. Sorry about the lengthy message. I do hope that someone might be able to shed some light on this intriguing issue. Many thanks in advance Tag: DUN Not installed and a blank Windows Setup Tab Tag: 257445

I've tried: - Loading modem drivers from the Modem CD - The ME modem trouble shooting process - Uninstalling and reinstalling drivers - Device Manager, modem, properties, more info - Moving the modem into different PCI slots - checked IRQ settings etc The PC is only showing Com 1 and Com 2.

    - Screen Flickers/Refresh Rate Isn't There For some reason my screen is flickering. I understand it has to do w/ the refresh rate. This happened a few years ago and I changed the settings, but I forgot how to do it. So I googled it and every site I found said the same thing: rightclick desktop/properties/setting tab/click Advanced/to Adapter tab...and that's where I'd be able to increase it to 75 or 85.

Whenever I CCP someone's email address, and click on 'compose new email' on my Earthlink email server, I get two windows instead of one. How can I get rid of this annoying problem-openning two windows instead of one? Earthlink techs did not seem to know how to rid of it. Is it a Windows problem?

    - For What It Is Worth I've had a continuing problem with my HP Pavilion system in that it would halt and/or go into Restart on its own especially after being on web sites or games that had a lot of graphics. Everything I read said this was indicative of a heat problem, power problem, or video card problem. I ruled out heat and power so I ordered a new video card. While waiting for it to arrive I learned enough cruising these MS NGs to check the memory status in the BIOS. I found that one of the two 64M chips was not working. Replaced the defective chip with a 128M chip and my system is running fast and I haven't had anymore random halts/restarts. I cancelled the order for the video card and lived somewhat happily ever after. Job remarks, "Knowledge is sometimes better than book learnin'."

    - Hibernate and Stand By Hi. Does Anyone AT ALL know why the Hibernate and Stand by functions have simply stopped working? I recently had to reformat my hard drive (first time ever) and all was well for a while until one day I couldn't use those functions. I also just installed, hoping in vain, clearly that the problem will be fixed, a Registry Repair tool (AOS), but running the software didn't solve the issue (also clearly, registry and the power save functions are not related). So again, can please anyone tell me whyhave they stopped working and how to fix it? It's not a big issue, I can live without those (before the reformat, both had worked just fine, never a problem with them), but I'm afraid they are a sign of something bigger brewing under the surface just waiting for an opportunity to strike... Please only post if you know how to deal with this issue or where to find the remedy. Thanks. Tag: DUN Not installed and a blank Windows Setup Tab Tag: 257098

    - compatibility issue Background: I have a piece of software that is supposed to unlock a GSM phone from the phone company it was originally used with. The original company is in the UK; I am in the US, so third party unlocking software is needed to get the phone free to link to a new network. This was not a free phone and is useful because it is a tri-band unit usable in most countries. Problem: The program, called client.exe will not open properly. It reports Error Imported 0x02F2 API not found I reported the problem to the vendor, who responded oddly: "The software is compatible, although it is better to use a Win XP computer. We have had some customers experiencing trouble opening the file, usually the problem is solved when trying it on a different computer. If you still can't open the file with another computer, please email us." Can anyone clarify what the problem is? Running around trying random computers does not seem to be a reasonable solution. Is this software really not ME compatible? I can eventually get access to an XP machine but I would really like to know what the compatibility issue is and whether the vendor should be chastised for his advertised claims of "Windows compatible."

    - "Windows Running in Audit Mode" : Finding by Symantec Automated Assistant Hello: I ran the Automated Assistant at the Symantec Support site and I was told that: [b]"Windows is running in "Audit Mode". This happens when the PC manufacturer does not turn off this setting before your PC leaves the factory. When "Audit Mode" is turned on, it prevents your Symantec product from finishing its setup. "[/b] From there, I was referred to the Symantec Knowledge Base Article: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2004092812391039?Open&src=con_asa_us It does mention two regisrty keys which are suggestive of "Audit Mode". I have only one of those keys: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion ---> Audit Mode followed by 00 00 00 00 The symantec KB article in turn refers to a Microsoft KB article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=282190 which only treats of Windows XP. I use Windows ME. Both Symantec products seem properly installed on my PC and the NAV 2004 appears to be updating and scanning with few problems. No viruses are infecting the PC. This is confirmed by an online TrendMicro scan. An online Security Check via Symantec shows the firewall working properly and indicates that a current AV program with updated virus definitions is installed. Since I've successfully installed several Smantec products over the past few years, I am somewhat baffled by this notice that the manufacturer of the PC had failed to turn off a setting prior to its leaving the factory. When I looked into the Microsoft article referred to at that Symantec article, it only addressed an issue in Windows XP. My OS is windows ME. Further complicating matters is another notice from that Automated Assistant that my NAV 2004 program files are not up to date. It recommends running Live Update to remedy this. However, when I run Live Update, I'm told that all the relevant symantec files are up to date. Can it be that the Symantec Automated Assistant is simply misleading and doesnt quite work with Windows ME, or is there likely to be some major problem in my NAV 2004?

    - Critical Updates and Decreasing System Stability I've been faithfully installing Windows'ME Critical Updates for some time now and my system seems to be getting more and more unstable. I now get a blue screen crash almost every day and sometimes more than one a day. They are randomly erratic having no particular pattern or cause. Critical Updates appear to consist of an endless number of security updates to protect against hackers or deviant web sites accessing your computer. I'm not aware of there ever being an attempt to hack into my computer nor am I aware of anyone I know having had that experience. With the millions of web sites and hundreds of millions of users online everyday, the probability of getting hacked must be pretty low (especially for an on and off dial-up connection). The endless succession of Critical Updates never seem to offer fixes for known system bugs, which I would appreciate. I'm wondering if there isn't a connection between the endless procession of Critical Update patches and the increasing instability of the operating system. Might I be and have been better off ignoring the Critical Updates? -randau Oregon, USA I read and post from the Google Groups web site using a Spam collecting email address that I don't use for anything else.

1. Am trying to install the SBC Yahoo CD but it says that DUN is not
installed (which stops the install process). There is a DUN applet in
Control Panel and I can get through the internet already. Any idea what is
it looking for to say that DUN is NOT installed? Some registry value?

2. Also in Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs>Windows Setup tab, there are no
entries in the "Components" list. It is completely blank so that it looks
like nothing is installed. I suspect another registry entry is gone/corrupt.
Is there a way to repair this?

Thanks for all your help!
